First Impressions Of The Samsung Galaxy S4
Opinions will undoubtedly vary with the Droid Horizon team, but this is my personal take on the yesterday’s Samsung unveiling of the Galaxy S4.

[APP] App Lock- Added Security For Your Device
I’ve been on the fence about securing my device. On the one hand, of course I want security. But on the other hand, I want convenience. Think about how many times a day we check our devices.
